The worst sin you can commit for a cishet middle-aged showrunner is to take his "haha gay sex funny" jokes seriously and react accordingly as if it wasn't thinly veiled homophobia with a "progressive" coat of painting. We did that and had to be put in our place, not before milking the last view and free publicity through fan works from us. Nothing groundbreaking about it, it's what they've been doing for decades, regardless of how delicious the crumbs they throw to string you along might taste.

so…how was the finale? did you get the yaoi? did you get the intricately setup endgame? was it a win for the lgbts? was insulting & speaking over poc & defending misogyny worth it? lmk!

I know this is old news about Taika being a brainwashed zionist dick who uses his Māoriness as a cash cow, but Jemaine Clement (also Māori) has just signed a ceasefire letter with Aotearoa Artists 4 Ceasefire. More attention on the more talented one in the duo please.

the 0fmd news LMFAO

[eleni-cherie]

since the final season of "what we do in the shadows" started, a reminder to 🏴‍☠️ it since Harvey Guillen, Kirsten Schaal and Taika Waititi are zionists.

I dislike the Guide and Nandor stuff so much???! I feel like they threw it in out of nowhere at some point and then just keep trying to make it happen? I’m only a few eps in but like this season has been really off. Like what happened? I don’t know any behind the scenes stuff but this season feels jarringly different to me.

I got thinking too much about Marwa from What We Do in the Shadows again and how she was canonically making observations of Jupiter and Saturn in the 1200s. Then I thought about how Elena took Damon to go watch a meteor shower, and I decided that Marwa and Elena should get away from all the vampire drama B.S. in their lives and go nerd out about astronomy together, and this moodboard sort of happened. I also thought about how Elena becomes a doctor and went ah, they are both women in STEM! So I ran with that as a theme too.

But yeah, Marwa needs a friend who will actually support her interests and engage with her intellectually (no shade to Nadja and the Guide, I'm glad they had a fun weekend watching Mamma Mia together which was literally the only time we got to actually see Marwa happy onscreen, but they have never demonstrated much interest in science that I can recall and I want Marwa to have an astronomy buddy), and I think Elena would be fascinated by her and her perspectives on astronomy from centuries ago, and they could learn about modern astronomical advances together. If I find the time and energy I might even write fic about it, but for now, here is a moodboard so that we can all bask in the vibes of my beautiful crossover vision together.

guillermo is the only person in the whole world laszlo finds unfuckable so it’d be hilarious if laszlo’s interest in finding out what’s going on with guillermo would come from the fact that laszlo does want to fuck him now

[anxietycheesecake]

Won't ever rewatch wwdits, but I'm pretty sure Guillermo being portrayed as desirable is a Mandela effect we gaslighted ourselves into believing through projection. Yes, the entire fandom found him hot, but none of the other characters did, except the Guide. Like, they went out of their way to tell us no one wants his round piece of ass till the very last minute. I hate it, but it is what it is lmao

[lesbianclaryfray]

if nandermo doesn't end up getting together/being endgame, i wonder how quickly the people who were telling us we were overreacting/missing the point/harassing the writers/being the worst fandom ever/etc. over the whole marwa debacle will be writing long twitter threads and tumblr essays about how wwdits sucks and queerbaited them and the writers should kill themselves

The New Kids on the Block

Speculations about new characters on The Rookie and Brilliant Minds.

Officer Aaron Thorsen (played by Tru Valentino).

Why did Tru Valentino leave The Rookie? The official statement is because of "creative decission made by the writers". A reason so cliché which had made some fans speculated that the actual reason was racially biased. I disagree. The fact that one of his replacement, Deric Augustine, is black, should immediately counter that speculation. My guess is that money was the actual reason. Valentino had been with the show for 3 seasons (S4 to S6). Perhaps, it was the time for his contract renewal. The decision makers of the show might not agree about his asking raise, so they let him go. The way they hired two actors to replace him seems to show that they could get two equally good actors with about the same cost.

Left: Officer Seth Ridley (played by Patrick Keleher). Right: Officer Miles Penn (played by Deric Augustine).

The next question is what's in store for Officer Aaron Thorsen's replacements, Officer Miles Penn (played by Deric Augustine) and Officer Seth Ridley (played by Patrick Keleher)? Having two new rookies is a good plot device for Chenford's competition storyline. However, it could be a waste of money in the long run. Thus, one of them probably had to go by the end of the season. But which one?

Officer Miles Penn (played by Deric Augustine).

Considering the blatant efforts of various TV shows to fulfill the racial diversity quota (not that it is a bad thing), it's safe to predict that Miles Penn might be the one who'd stay. Seth Ridley could be transferred to a different station, resigning, turned villain, or even killed on the job (God, I hope not 🤞, but it would be good for drama!). After what happened with Travis Montgomery of Station 19, Buddie (Buck/Eddie) & Tommy Kinard of 9-1-1, and Nandermo of What We Do in the Shadows, I try to learn the pattern and predict what TV shows would do, in regards with racial and queer/gender diversity. If possible (frankly, I don't know how), I don't want to be too attached to characters or couples who would not last until the end of the show.

It's the same reason why I don't want to be too attached to the new lesbian couple in Brilliant Minds, Dr. Dana Dang & Katie Rodriguez. Brilliant Minds has already had one main queer couple, Wolfnichols, who is shown-off front and center. Both Dr. Oliver Wolf and Dr. Josh Nichols are main casts. They most likely wouldn't go anywhere until the show ended. Katie Rodriguez is only a side character so far. Considering what happened with queer couples in other shows, I don't think Dana & Katie's romance would last long.

Officer Seth Ridley (played by Patrick Keleher).

Back to the new rookies, it would be ashamed to lose Seth Ridley, though. I'm already fond of his big-eyed babyface and dimpled smile. However, it's better safe than sorry, so I plan to manage my expectation somehow. I don't want to get my heart broken again by a damn TV show!

Free Palestine! 🇵🇸

Hi anon❤️! This is not my main blog, it is one of 4 sideblogs that I run, each existing as a place for me to dump mostly reblogs for my different interests. You can find my main blog @the-sleepy-bluebonnet, where I post almost daily in support of Palestine.

So while I will not be posting or reblogging things after this related to the current genocide on this blog, please know that I am 100% behind Palestinian liberation and the dismantling and condemnation of the Israeli occupation. I am keeping this blog committed to wwdits-related posts for the TV show, and that's only for as long as the showrunners keep themselves in line (tbh I just haven't looked into their stances on it much because my interest in the show has been dropping since season 4 started). To everyone else, please take this reply as me officially stating:

If you are a Zionist, you are not welcome here. Get yourself the fuck off of my followers list and don't bother sending me shit to my inbox to try to convince me of anything on the Zionist agenda, because you cannot sway me and I will not respond to it. Thanks! 🇵🇸
